Why I chose this topic?

I chose the topic on Suicide for many reasons. I believe that the main reason I chose it was because suicide is so common among us teens now a days. I am pretty sure that more than 40% of us have thought about or even tried committing suicide at some point for some reason. Suicide can be caused by many reasons. One of the main reasons would be for the fact that they're depressed. From the people that are clinically depressed, about 15% of those will most likely die from suicide. For people from ages 15 to 24, suicide is the third leading cause of death and suicide is so common that an average of one person dies from it every 16.2 minutes.
